Bumpin Uglies - Bumpin Uglies '2019

Tracks list

For nearly a decade now, Bumpin Uglies have been playing their brand of
groove-heavy jams – a curiously fun mix of ska, Reggae and good
ole’ punk rock – all while putting strong lyrics at the forefront
of the music. It’s a formula that quickly took them from local favorites,
playing around Annapolis, to a national stage. With a wildly infectious sound,
tattoo-worthy lyrics and an itch to take their music to the masses, the band
piled into the van years ago and have rarely seen home since.

The Bumpin Uglies’ origin story begins with singer/guitarist Brandon
Hardesty playing open mics around Maryland. He met bassist Dave Wolf not too
long after and Bumpin Uglies was born. With a proper set of wheels and TJ
Haslett on drums, they went off to spread their music across the country like
modern day Johnny Appleseeds. The group recently added Chad Wright on keyboards,
expanding on their sound.
Raised on everything from Bad Religion and The Beach Boys to Sublime and Reel
Big Fish, Bumpin Uglies have managed to take inspiration from some of the best
out there, run it through their own distinctive filter and end up with a truly
original take on the various genres creating an original hybrid. With a unique
sound that’s nearly impossible to ignore, the band has gotten everyone
from dreadlocked kids to PBR-fueled tattooed punks moving their heads to their
music at festivals and on headlining tours across the country.

When they aren’t on the road, they’ve been camped in the studio,
churning out three full lengths, two EPs and a live record. Their latest,
2016’s Keep It Together came out on Right Coast Records and is proof that
the band has found their groove. The album consists of a dozen stand-out tracks,
any one of which could be considered instant classics for the band.
They’re already at work on the follow up, but true to their rep as being
on the never-ending tour, chances are they’ll be coming to a venue near
you soon.
